Plagerism

<p>I found out my friend failed his research project because he plagerized his entire 4 page essay O_O. Does that mean he can't apply to any universities anymore?</p>

<p>Wow I bet he's regreting that. I'm not sure about your school, but in mine it means you don't graduate, and you can't go to college if you don't graduate.</p>

<p>yeah, and this was junior year so...he's a bit in a panick frenzy</p>

<p>your friend or you? yeah though, depends on the circumstances</p>

<p>my friend....i really dont' know why he did it though...but then again he probably did it the night before</p>

<p>Well I guess I should clarify that you don't graduate if you plagerise your SENIOR research paper. So maybe since your friend is only a Junior it will only effect his grades, but I'm not sure it depends on your school.</p>

<p>it was just his finals research paper -<em>- i spent 10 minutes calling him a butthead and whatnot, but I know he learned his lesson big time! .</em>.</p>

<p>He had a B but the teacher brought it down to a C and his teacher filled out a white/pink/yellow sheet for cheating so i dunno how that's going to go</p>

<p>That sounds pretty lenient.
In my school they fail you and then suspend you and then put you on probation (not sure exactly what that constitutes). And then at the next assembly, they tell the whole school about it (but not including any names). Usually names spill out though. That must be embarrassing.</p>

<p>Does that mean it's going to show up on his transcript?</p>

<p>My school is the same as sunshineyday's. Most teachers will automatically fail you for the semester and you can get suspended. </p>

<p>The C will go on the transcript and if there is any other punishment, like suspension, that will also go on the transcript.</p>

<p>Wow..that's pretty bad..how did he expect to plagiarize a 4 page essay and get away with it?</p>

<p>ok, i just found out his teacher filled out an Academic dishonesty referral. Would that show up on his transcript to college? I'm not too familiar with it</p>

<p>Reply to Tritiumknight: all he said was "i shouldn't have procrastinated"</p>

<p>bumppppppppp</p>

<p>aww this thread is dead >_<</p>

<p>but wait a minute...doesn't it matter on how the class deals with it?</p>

<p>lmaoooooooooooooooooo</p>

<p>bumppppppp!</p>

<p>ummm... what are you wanting us to say?</p>

<p>your friend made a major mistake, he got of fairly light, major harm, little foul.</p>
